Measure 21 on November ballot: Rally urges passing of fee to aid state parks

Clare Strohman, left, and Mary Golden address the crowd at a ‘Yes on 21’ rally for the state parks at Mission Plaza in San Luis Obispo on Tuesday.

Proposition 21, a measure on the November ballot, would raise new money for the parks.

If passed, the measure would place an $18 surcharge on vehicle license fees for cars, motorcycles and recreational vehicles. That would generate $500 million each year, with the bulk going to support the parks.
